About Douglas Glen

Just someone who likes riding his bike(s).

Road, Gravel, bit of mtb as that's what started me off but generally happy just to be turning pedals and exploring.

Only rides I've found particulary interesting or tell a story on here, the day to day miles can stay elsewhere.

Maggie's 48 Hr Attempt

‍Well, I didn't get the loop, but I got all the centres. What an experience, completely made by the support from MVCC. From people at side of the road, to a squad at Maison Dieu, a few miles on the Harris train, to then out of nowhere there was Nicki at side of road on other side of Scotland with Mike and Erik ready to do a chunk with me. They left at just the right time (for them), after a cracking ride along Loch Tay it was into climbing, 3 cat3 climbs in quick succession took me to the A9, where I was greeted by a head wind, 8mph avg on flattish roads was challenging and at that point I was low. Messages were still coming in with support, though, and I was determined to at least get to Inverness. A quick break and a refuel I got to the last Maggie's. While I'm gutted, I didn't complete what was planned, a combination of under estimating the elevation, the wind all weekend and the forecast storm which I was going to hit made it the right choice to stop, no point being stuck in middle of nowhere. At end of day, this is now: Longest Ride (distance) Longest Ride (time) Most Elevation Ride
